Advice to ManagementAdvice

You need new people to fix the problems in Chico's. Get real about the business and not about making everyone be your robots in the store. People have personalities, let them be themselves while working with customers. No one needs a script, that is just ridiculous, you have your heads wrapped around the wrong issues. You should be concentrating on the merchandise and listening to your stores. Chico's just gives out orders and expects everyone to become what they want to be if you don't you are fired! No matter how good you are , you have to be like them. Get rid of the door counters, they are inaccurate results you people don't use them properly. You use them to your advantage to say customers were not being helped, that is BS. Just one more thing that stresses out the store, it isn't they way to do business. Chico's you just go waaaaaay overboard in lack of direction to the stores, you make the stores act like puppets. Not the way to run a blusiness.
